Job seeking is an often lonely, full time occupation in itself. The challenges of being out of work, or seeking the next step can be complicated and disheartening. In Desperately Seeking Salary, I go looking for conversations with people in a similar position to me, discuss the challenges of finding a new job in a post-Covid marketplace, and talk to recruitment experts about the best way to stand out from the crowd. If you'd like to tell your story or have some advice to offer listeners, come and be a guest on the show!

    Stephen Murtagh - Playing Snakes and Ladders

    If you had to describe your job search as a game, what would it be? 2020 led Stephen Murtagh to describe his job search as a game of snakes and ladders, so much so that he invited others on LinkedIn to describe their searches as games too, and it turned in to a lot of fun. Stephen joins Desperately Seeking Salary to talk about his fascinating and varied career and what 2021 has in store for him.
